Hallo I have a big Problem,

I cooked a ROM and flashed it on my MDA Vario 2. After Reset my device starts to boot an then it went out and starts again, ever and ever. Nothing else happens.

I tryed to go into Boot-Mode (left "OK" + "Power" + Stick Reset) but nothing happens.

What can I do, please help me:( :(

Swith your device off. Then go into bootloader mode (left "OK" + "Power" + Stick Reset(hold it))

Hey Ghz,

I did this but without any effect. The device was out, then I tried to go in bootloader mode (I did hold the two buttons and the Stick) but it went not in boot-mode. It starts again and again. I only can stop it by taking off the battery.

Have you try put in your charging/USB cable without installing the battery? After that try go get in bootloader mode.

I but the USB cable in (without battery). The LED went red. Then I made the Reset and tried to get in boot but nothing happens. Then I Put battery in. LED went orange. Then I tried the bootmode. But the device only tried aigain to boot again and again. I'm getting stupid with this thing. I can't get into bootmode.

When you say that "it boots over and over", how far is it getting in the boot process? What is the last screen that loads before it starts to boot again?

Also, have you tried reflashing with a known working ROM using SD Card method?

What version of SPL was on the device when you flashed this ROM?

Was the ROM you created an OS-only ROM or was there more? If there was more, then what else?

It starts booting. All numbers appear (at the bottem). Then, when normaly the "HTC" animation would start, it breakes and starts again.

It was an OS-Rom (3.61) with several other programms (I exactly don't know jet). The SPL was 1.04 I think (If that is possible).

I cooked the ROM and I forgot to add two other boot-screens I think. Because it breaks when the first boot-screen should appear (I think).

Flashing with SD Card was also without any effect. I think it breaks to early to boot from SD (Or may it be, because I can not enter the boot-screen?)

Sorry my erglish is not the best

Don't worry about your English - it is very good.
Even if you did not put splash screens in your ROM, it would not be a problem, because it would just keep the ones that were already on the device.

I know that his does not help you, but it would have helped you to flash HardSPL, because it sounds like you *may* have corrupted the IPL or SPL, since you cannot put the phone into bootloader mode and it is not getting past the bootloader at startup. Unfortunately, I do not know a way to fix this. HardSPL would have prevented this, because it protects the bootloaders from overwriting. I wish I had better news. Maybe someone else can help...
